All local SE Valley women are invited to attend the monthly meeting of the AAUW SE Valley Branch held on the third Monday of the month from 5:30 to 7 p.m. at the IronOaks clubhouse in the Bradford Room.
On Feb. 16 our featured speaker is Tom Pearson, Dean of Workforce and Innovation at Chandler-Gilbert Community College (CGCC). Tom has played a pivotal role in creating innovative programs such as artificial intelligence, semiconductor technician, and aviation workforce training, as well as fostering partnerships with industry giants like Boeing and Intel. Tom will share the latest in STEM/AI offerings at CGCC and discuss how these outstanding programs benefit new and returning female students.
